[quote=Anonymous]Unless it's dead obvious that you need the degree (eg you want to be a lawyer or a doctor), I don't think anyone should get an advanced degree until they've worked in the field and validated that they actually like and have an aptitude for the work. Then look around and see what colleagues you admire have done and get feedback and advice. Ideally, you go at night and work pays for it or part of it. But using a Masters as a way to delay entry into the workforce is a bad idea. Academic life doesn't really prepare people or explain the types of white collar jobs available these days in knowledge fields anyway. [/quote]
